Strategic Human Resource Planning

This book analyses human resource planning (HRP) function with a strategic lens. Human Resource Management (HRM), being a business-aligned function of organizations, is primarily shaped by HRP. The need for strategic handling of the latter thus results in a revamped nomenclature - SHRP. In addition to detailing the basic tools and techniques of HRP, this book delves into important strategic areas to transform SHRP as a critical HR function, on which the success of all other HR functions, including the success of organizations depend. The emerging areas of SHRP - post-merger integration of manpower through SHRP, manpower rationalization for organizational change, manpower outsourcing, the use of analytics for predictive decisions on SHRP, AI/ML support for effective SHRP - are some of the key topics that have been discussed in the book. This book uses organisational examples, case lets/vignettes, and case studies to make the learning process more practice oriented. This book will be useful to students, professionals, practitioners, researchers, and faculty members.
